- (continued from previous page)If there are crumbs in your teacup you are to be at a wedding.
If chickens are let out too early while the dew is on the grass they will get the "piuc".
If a moth flies around the light at night you will get a letter.
If your nose is itchy on right side someone is talking well of you.
If on left side someone is talking badly of you.
If your nose bleeds, tie your small finger tightly or put keys down your back.
If the palm of your hand itches you will shake hands with a stranger or else you will get money.
